I always thought the older Wide Glide with the flared rear fender and I still like the ones that came with the flame paint jobs were one of the sexiest looking bikes Harley Davidson ever made !!!
The Super Glides, you can burn up the twisties on those bikes. Had one. Love to have another. You can lay them over in a corner without scraping parts. Never had any problems picking up chicks with my big Mercs and Caddys and Imperials. Dumb move by H.D. stopping Dyna production. Those bikes are still desired. And they looked like a motorcycle should, not some blacked out plastic fantastic.
Maybe the Dyna guys just want to use the girl for a little bit and give them to the Softail guys to keep after they've been used up. And I'm pretty sure they want the hardtail haha
Softail rides softer than Dyna? I have a Dyna and its primo with a passenger. My buddy had Night Train and always complained about the lack of suspension with a passenger.
I had a 2002 wide glide for several years. Fantastic bike!! You can make the wide glide a excellent 2 up bike too. A big touring seat and my wife and I had about the same room as a heritage softail.
Dyna is dyna from what i know. Heritage and fatboy belong to the softail family - no rear shocks like on dyna or touring bikes like road king, electra glide or street glide. I've ridden 1998 heritage softail and 2005 road king - and the road king was very cool in the corners - it was like floating through them with ease. Heritage (evo engine) rumbles and shakes like crazy but has the spirit esspecially when it's tuned well so the motor is idling like it's about to stop but it keeps going. 👌 10/10 would recommend.
2016 wide glide is my machine. Vance and Hines short shots all blacked out. Multiple seats, two sizes of quick release saddle bags saddle bags, quick release wind shield and can chrome it out too.
I rode one Softail and it was like riding a cloud, I always wanted an '89-90 Softail, landed a '94 Dyna Wide Glide last week which still has the Evolution engine which I consider probably the best HD offering other than the 1,200 Sportster engine. I'm just going to keep it simple for now and replace the drive belt and tires, add a windshield and ride the Hell out of it. I may mess about with camshaft upgrades eventually someday and maybe a different intake but. I like simple and this is my first V-Twin ever. This thing is basically mint and the price couldn't be beat!
Ok I've been trying to find out i get what the difference is between a dyna and soft tail is but what is a super glide is that the same as a wide glide? I probably and like an idiot just looking to be informed
@@jaredtomochak4946 Wide Glide have wider triple trees up front. My 1997 Super Glide got the skinny triple trees and the narrow 39mm forks the Sportsters use.
Can anyone please help me out as to what grips those are? I have the exact same ones in my 2006 Wide Glide, but I'm not sure if it is stock or not. Mine is also heated.
I have the same pipes on my 07 wide glide. Look good but I hate the sound, I can hear that same sound on this video. Not loud enough and doesn't have that nice harley sound. Going for a set of big radius soon. Great bike.
on my DYNA sometimes the kick stand makes a bumping noise when i go over bumps, i don't care..lol so what was rattling ? your seat? how could it rattle when you are sitting on it?
Hey man, what kind of exhaust do you have? Is it stock? I have really loud obnoxious exhaust on my used Dyna, I love everything about it except for the exhaust...
Its called a Wide Glide because of the degree in the rake of the forks, not because wideness of the triple tree. Another thing the Wide Glide was the most expensive of the Dyna family of motorcycles. May want to check your facts BRUH.
Most of hd dealers are the size of Walmart and the company is more known for its apparel than the bikes. If the price of the whole HD line drop by 25% more ppl might buy the bikes; and they might be more competitive.
Just visited a bike show with new models. And even though the new Harleys are pretty nice looking the details of assembly, parts etc is far behind most other brands. Still not using hydraulics. Come on.. I sat on the 2018 Breakout and the squeak noise from the shifter, the bad tolerances from the gas handle etc is just not ok at that price level. Compare it to a new BMW or Honda and a blind can tell the difference.
Balooba Not using hydraulics? Thief valves have been hydraulic for what 40 years, no valve jobs who else does that? Hold their value better than any other bike, you could ride it for 5 years decide you don’t like and get 80% of your money back.
@@A-FrameWedge they hold their value because of the market it has nothing to do with the way the bike is built the market value keeps the bikes price up. If the way the bike was built determined the value then maybe they wouldn't have the slowest least powerful Vtwin in the class every single year. Also they would have put a lot more money in the keeping the engine cooler a lot sooner then 2018. Harley's are nice bikes they are very nice some would say even works of art but they are not well engineered they are very old technology and they still put their fucking stator electronics through the middle of the motor hence why Harley's always have bad stators
I have really long legs and every bike I sit on makes me feel like I'm eating my kneecaps. Is it true the wide glide might be the best bike for long legged riders? I know they shortened the newest wide glides but maybe the 93-08 would work? Any advice?
Dyna has the best handling of any bike Harley makes imo. It is also more comfortable for me than the streetglide I used to ride as well. I am a smaller guy tho so that could have something to do with it. Longer rides on the flhx made my whole back strain and get really sore. My wide glide doesn't do that.
Gas caps rattling hehhe I have a 99 fatboy with the split tank and the gas caps rattle at times. Now I know mine is not the only one that does that LOL!
32 degrees rake.I used to have a sporty before my w/glide. I had zodiac wide forks conversion ,with a 32 degree rake ,fully chromed forks fitted.Boy that sporty looked great.
Why would anyone want a H-D engine that doesn't vibrate and make alot of noise? This long-time Honda owner wants a '16 (Or older) Wide Glide or Fat Boy with the loud, hot, vibrating Twin-Cam 88!! They're so much fun.
Too much blowby or check the intake bolts there's one going into each head that should be hollow and unobstructed they are your crankcase vents. I've seen people bolt aftermarket intakes on with soild bolts (no holes) or put gasket maker on the threads for some reasonand plugging the holes
Dyna's!! I could never afford to buy an HD, which is why I love my 1985-1996 Honda CMX 250C Rebel! Mr. Honda based its appearance on the lovely 1981/82 Harley Shovelhead, FXWG Wide Glide, with its spoked narrow front wheel, spoked fat rear wheel, chromed rear springs, loads of chrome all over, tear-drop tank, handlebar mounted chrome and polished alloy speedo, and a cheeky "turned-up tip" to the rear fender! Mr Honda's Harley...just the engine is a little different...but I can get used to that...LOL...and her name is Daisy!....😀...😀...!
Paul FOSBERY , way to be real, brother! Though I don't particularly relish the idea of supporting motorcycle companies that aren't from America, my former current bike was a Honda 600, though one would have to look hard at it to realize it. We completely chopped it, lowered it 2.5", fabbed a gnarly set of pipes, fabbed a KICK-ASS set of bars, morphed it into a hard-tail, and bobbed it into a sweet little bar hopper!! We also put spokes in back to match the front and powder coated every thing black!! The only things that weren't black were the chrome pieces on the jugs & the phat white-wall tire in back!! I'll bet I would get 20 comments a day from civilians alone, not even counting bikers!! Unfortunately, on 10 March 2017, an older guy slammed on his brakes in front of me on the freeway FOR NO REASON(there wasn't a vehicle or anything in front of him for half a mile!), and when I grabbed both brakes, my fronts locked for some reason & the biik flipped &slammed me to the pavement at 55mph!! She was a total loss. :- (>
You could afford a Harley. Used bikes are pretty cheap. You can get a nice, used Sportster for a few grand. Just put away as much as you can for as long as it takes to save the money. I'm in that boat right now. I could go buy another VTX 1300 (which is a fantastic bike, btw) right now. But I want a Harley as my next bike. Been saving for a couple months and it'll probably be a year before I have the cash in hand to get what I want. But that's ok with me because it gives me a goal to look forward to achieving. And good on you for loving what you ride and being proud to ride it. So many people want to discourage others because they think anything that doesn't have an 8700 cubic yard engine, nine-inch pipes that can be heard from the moon and six-foot ape hangers is a "girl's bike." If it's got two wheels, I'll wave at it.
You could still get a sportster if you know where to look. I picked up an 01 1200 sportster for $1300 a couple years ago. $500 later and it was back on the road
Since they stopped making the Dynas does that mean the cost to maintain them at Harley Davidson will Increase I have to get a new carburetor and 2 new tires And who knows what else for a 1998 Dina that's been sitting inside of a house for a little over 4 years
I pay taxes out of my check, I pay taxes on anything I buy, I pay taxes on anything I drive, I pay taxes on where I live. And I pay taxes on a bunch of other stuff. I have to obey silly laws and I have to obey new silly laws being voted on whilst I sleep. Pretty soon they will take our guns and probably my motorcycle. Free ? Shut up man.
You forgot to mention the fact that HD is closing this factory in USA, but opening a brand new factory in Thailand, with low-cost non American labor making the parts. Is this really a MADE in USA company?
Man, I watch a lot of motorcycle videos but Srkcycles are my favorite. Keep up the good work!
I’m a girl, and I say: skip the middle man and go straight for the Dyna!
I pretty much live on my 2011 FXDB.

My 06 super glide was the best bike I ever had
I can’t decide between super glide or wide glide! I’ve only ridden the super glide so far. Does the wide glide really handle much worse?
Maybe the Dyna guys just want to use the girl for a little bit and give them to the Softail guys to keep after they've been used up. And I'm pretty sure they want the hardtail haha
I bought an 05 Dyna Wide Glide about 6 months ago and it is so awesome!
In what universe is a softail more comfortable that a wideglide?
rickybobby1340 The new Soft Tails have better suspension than Dynas, but I like the look of the Dyna’s better
Soft tails are not soft
Not in mine.
Honestly the bike I have right now is not that comfortable I sat in a softtail and it was more comfortable then my bike but idk

What seat did you have?
What seat did you have?
@@briangleason5597 I had a mustang wide touring seat. Pillow top version
I have a sundowner my girlfriend loves it she’s rode 70,000 miles on it
Also can tell the wide glide apart from other dynas to by rear fender. It has same softail boattail fender.
You guys rock, been following for a while. Keep it up, ride safe.
Is there a video explaining the differences between the harley models?
dyna, heritage, softail, classic, roadking, electra glide, fatboy, streetglide
If you want actual facts, look elsewhere.
Dyna is dyna from what i know. Heritage and fatboy belong to the softail family - no rear shocks like on dyna or touring bikes like road king, electra glide or street glide.
I've ridden 1998 heritage softail and 2005 road king - and the road king was very cool in the corners - it was like floating through them with ease.

Look up a Harley chart timeframe on google
Why would you want to keep all the girls? There's lots of them out there! Just go get the next one.
“I’m not a physician, not a mathmatist” 🤣 had me rolling bro!
Dude it’s physicist😂😂 physician is a doctor 😂
2016 wide glide is my machine.
Vance and Hines short shots all blacked out.
Multiple seats, two sizes of quick release saddle bags saddle bags, quick release wind shield and can chrome it out too.
I rode one Softail and it was like riding a cloud, I always wanted an '89-90 Softail, landed a '94 Dyna Wide Glide last week which still has the Evolution engine which I consider probably the best HD offering other than the 1,200 Sportster engine.

yea dynas are cool, but FXRs are even cooler!

You should mention the price of the motorcycle your riding.
It's 4 c* In sweden and i wanne ride my dyna. And there i see a biking riding a dyna. Nice video.
Thats awesome! Greetings from America
Just bought me a 2010 dyna , Awesome looking bike!! Low miles , looks immaculate!! 👍😁
They all need love! Low miles are crazy, just like my boat with no hours, thank God, bikes it's better than a boat sitting forever!
1:50-1:59 “AMEN🙏🏻”

Good looking bike. Do like the white...don't see it much. Nice customizing on this one...not too overdone.
I’ve got an 05 FXDWG I Love it 🤘🏻
Louis Cypher I got a sweet 95
I got an 07 dyna qide glide
Eli Murray Me too. I don’t plan on ever replacing it.
me too great bike
Got a 92 FXDC It ain't going anywhere without me on it.
The dyna was discontinued when the m8 came out which was 2017. How do you not know this?
on my DYNA sometimes the kick stand makes a bumping noise when i go over bumps, i don't care..lol so what was rattling ? your seat? how could it rattle when you are sitting on it?
Hey man, what kind of exhaust do you have? Is it stock? I have really loud obnoxious exhaust on my used Dyna, I love everything about it except for the exhaust...
Said no one ever
I have a 95 dyna low rider and i love it. I was wondering why the price of the vrods went up in price.
Mines purple, and I do like white bikes......and I like those bars

What handle-Bars were those? Reminds me of something close to a drag bar?
Beautiful bike ......Handel bars need to go!!!!!!!!!!!?
Wide glide test ride

wow...thank you for pointing out the bike that rattles....not buying that one, great job, thank you.
The only reason you like a white bike is because you don't have to clean it !
Gas caps rattling hehhe I have a 99 fatboy with the split tank and the gas caps rattle at times. Now I know mine is not the only one that does that LOL!
ITs a HD, its supposed to rattle
those sportbike gloves on a Harley are just disturbing me so much.... :D
That jacket ain't helping matters.
HOW TALL ARE YOU ? I AM LOOKING TO PICK UP A WIDE GLIDE NEXT WEEK I AM 6.2 FEET I DONT WANT TO LOOK LIKE A GIANT /P
when do you call the winner for the dyna???
Great looking bike!
My softail kills my back til I switched to a Saddleman seat now I may get 150 miles for a day lol
Anyone know what handle bars are on it?
I think it has to do with the back seat I have a Dyna low rider and the women can sit back and and enjoy her self
You gotta learn that shifting on em too !
Always spread that Gospel man 😀😀it is the most important thing. And ride motorcylcles too 😃😃
I had an 04 fxdwg in white, my first Harley, good times on that one. Pretty good handling bike no doubt.
The Wide Glides tail fender is sexy AF.
Dynas still exist , I spotted one the other day but the photage is unfocused.
Ufo
My Wife loves my Dyna
I hate to sound like a newb, but can someone please explain the tank controls? I know clockwise is on, mid is off, what's the other one?
Its accs*
for accessory power. Depending on you model could serve several functions.
I ❤️the wideglide rake
Patxi del Norte That was what made me fall in love with the WG too.

75k for evos, 100k for tc88
Better than a softail suspension on a softail will kill your back on long rides. Check it out man.
I know my bike has drag bars n it seems to oversteer, way to easy to steer,
What would it cost to ship a 🎁 from you to Miami?
hey could anyone tell me why my oil cap keeping popping out?
Too much blowby or check the intake bolts there's one going into each head that should be hollow and unobstructed they are your crankcase vents. I've seen people bolt aftermarket intakes on with soild bolts (no holes) or put gasket maker on the threads for some reasonand plugging the holes
Literally looks exactly like my 94 Suzuki intruder,I wonder who copied who? Lmao
Are you riding Connecticut
Any check I ride on the back of a Dyna must have a backside made of iron in order to survive
I don't think that any girl can say difference between any Harley motorcycle 😂

pegs
Right. Pegs, not floorboards. Never “floorboard pegs”.
Yeah the girls have a hard tail before they get on the dyna. After they have a Softail
I hear the rattling.
